BY Sheffield...do you have a HM comp?

[Lefty]

I am considering the Sheffield Sofa by BY with the full analine leather (Grade IV?)...I really like the style but after reading a few of your posts I would have an interest in a comparable sofa by HM...

Take a look at the H&M Kodiak....doesn't have the wood trim, but is better made and I think even more comfortable - and it will cost more.

OK, now please tell me about the 1345 Sheffield Sofa and Loveseat...where can I see it, how can I determine if it will fit through my hallway?

There is no database of what dealer has what product on the floor, so you have to do it the old-fashioned way by calling around. I can tell you that I don't have that model in my store.....

As to fitment, most pieces like that will go though 33" doorways. If you're under that, then some measuring needs to be done.

I am tempted to order the 1344 and 1345 Somerset Sofa & LS. I am pricing the furniture with Class 3 leather...could you tell me the difference between protected and unprotected analine leathers? How is the end result wrt comfort, hand, patina, etc.? Have you found the difference btwn class 2 and 3 leathers to be 'worth the difference'?
